WRI Cascades Track and Sign Evaluation with David Moskowitz
2026-06-13 08:00 - 2026-06-14 17:00
Spend two full days in the Cascades around Leavenworth, with professional wildlife tracker, naturalist, educator and author, David Moskowitz. This wildlife track and sign evaluation is offered through CyberTracker North America. David’s approach to this class is highly interactive, engaging participants in identification and interpretation of tracks and signs. There is lots of time for questions and discussion built in. The style of this class is an excellent way to learn about animal sign and investigate real life tracking scenarios. Participants have the chance to achieve a certificate at the end of the class, awarded on three levels. Prior CyberTracker students can take this class to attempt evaluation at a higher level.
CyberTracker courses provide an opportunity for quality, focused learning with some of the best trackers in the country. Courses are designed to further participant’s tracking knowledge, as well as to rigorously test and document their current tracking skill set. Originally designed to help African Bushmen gain employment on game preserves, these courses also provide an internationally recognized certification of tracking ability. Certifications are an important credential for wildlife researchers and environmental educators as well as for people who want to test and push their own ability. Evaluations are entirely field based, striving to expose participants to the widest range of tracks and signs as possible. Discussions are encouraged, giving participants a chance to air their thoughts and receive individualized instruction.
This workshop presented in partnership with the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center.
Cost:
Members of Wenatchee River Institute or Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center: $425
Public: $475
Transportation during class is provided. Food and lodging NOT included.
Limit of 11 participants
Trail difficulty: some off-trail travel, up and down ridgelines.
